Apologies for not getting the joke but...I don't get it.

I've seen this before, is it the new development near Old Street tube station? I thought of you when I saw it as you're the only person I know who calls it that!

HA!
For those not catching on: Bézier....Bézier curves...

I knew what Bézier curves are and how they relate to the logo, but surely the joke isn't simply that it's in a rigid box?..That's hardly much of a joke, even in a design-related context.

Not funny.

I feel stoopid, I also don't get it. Bézier's an apartment complex near as I can tell, there are two buildings that are essentially slightly curvy like the logo.
...also, not to be pedantic, but at it's simplest, a Bézier curve IS a straight line.

They're also the name of the company that killed off Poulters...I think. Not THAT actually company, but same name.
Why did I post that? Oh yes, because the joke is crap and so is my post.
Move along....
